I was shocked to learn about the bike accident that occurred on a street that I biked quite frequently. After last night (11/12/12)'s tragedy, it is necesary to have bike lanes in order to prevent future bike accidents on a well traveled street. We want bicycles to be separated from cars and pedestrians, so having bike lanes on either side of Brighton Avenue makes sense and would benefit all parties.

Letter to

Mayor MeninoCity of Boston

To the officer in charge of fundingBoston Public Health Commission

Please install bike lanes on Brighton Avenue to improve bicycling safety on the road and to decrease preventable accidents. Please do not wait until next year because a delay is likely going to result in additional accidents. Thanks for understanding!
